MAWTT - Spots or Dots

our lovely Jessie is hosting this week's challenge and has a fab theme of...

Spots or Dots

We would like your creation to have... polka dots or spots.... big or small.... to give us a cheery start to the New Year! :-)This was a card for male... so kept it very CAS... and let the beautiful LOTV Pre-Coloured image do the talking... I was going to add some gold nailheads but they seemed to spoil the balance... so left it be...

I used some of my all time favourite 'go to' papers for males... Kaisercraft Hunt & Gather which seem to match perfectly. I think the sentiment was a freebie with magazine? I use it a lot as it's a nice size.

I hope you can pop over to our main site at MAWTT and see the rest of the Team's spotty and dotty creations and hope you can join us for this fun challenge! you have until Wednesday 20th January at 6pm GMT to enter.

Thankfully I made this card a long time ago, way before Christmas... good job I made it early, as I still don't have access to my crafting stuff at the moment. We're working hard to get my room sorted, and are making progress, but think it's gonna take longer than I expected. One job seems to lead to another.

My new bed arrived today ... SO glad... just have to let the new mattress settle for 24 hours and then bliss!! can't wait to get on it and in it!! my spine pain has been so bad without it. Sure hope it's comfy!

Such a gorgeous image and you have set it off a treat with your gorgeous layout. Great stitched detail.Hope your bed proves comfy, you can tackle anything if you have had a good nights sleep.HugsCathyxxxx

Happy New Year Sue, love the image it's peaceful and relaxing in lovely colour tones which the papers you chose complement so beautifully. I hope when your room is finished you are able to relax in your new bed and get relief from the back pain. Hugs Megxxx
